Where can i buy pollen for a research study?

im afraid only bee pollen can be bought, so if you need to study pollen grains not contaminated by bee material, you have to collect it - not difficult. pine pollen is easiest to collect but virtually to impossible to cultivate into pollen tubes. the easiest to cultivate is tobacco pollen - tobacco is and equivalent to guinea pig in plant biology. somewhere it is restricted to cultivate tobacco unless u are a corporate body, though. maize pollen is also good - has large grains. quantitative chemical analyses are made more comlicated due to very resistant outer surface. generally pollen can be stored in -20 degrees of celsius, not more not less. write me email if you are serious bout it. what kind of research do u have in mind?

i dont think you really have to buy it, you could just pick up a flower and get it. Right?
Reply:buy it? haha come to Ga and u can get tons for free!
Reply:do you need a specific species of pollen? Pine pollen is easy to collect in peak pollination season in the forests!



Bee pollen from many angiosperms is sold in many health food stores. You can probably buy a pound for about $20.



Did you try e-bay? BTW, bee pollen needs to stay refrigerated for its nutritonal-health benefits
Reply:Get whatever flower you want to study. Let them dry for a few days and shake them on to a piece of paper. Or go to your local head shop and ask them for a pollen seperator. The best high ever.
